New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas's status has yet to be determined for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers after injuring his hamstring in practice, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
The three-time Pro Bowler has not played since Week 1 when he suffered a high-ankle sprain. He was ruled out against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5 after a reported fight during practice when he punched teammate C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
Week 6 would have given Thomas a chance to continue to heal since the team had a bye.
Head coach Sean Payton announced on Wednesday that Thomas's discipline would only last one game, and if healthy, the wide receiver could return against the Panthers.
